All this talk of the multi-talented and not-at-all irritating Richard Blackwood
has led me to ask a very important question this morning.

Who da man?*


*clue: it's not Richard Blackwood.

God he really was a spastic.

that called him the least famous celebrity of all time.

Doctor Who.
Matt Smith or Tennant to be precise. I'm still deciding which one I like more, but it's definitely one of them. :)

Tom Baker is Dr Who. No-one else.

I've never seen any of the old Doctors to agree or disagree
But I think Tennant, Smith & Eccleston have all been fantastic.
(, Wed 10 Nov 2010, 9:09, Reply)
Eccleston is a fucking tosser.
I saw him spouting complete testes and some imbecile like Jonathon Ross, about how 'he wanted his 'Doctor' to a depth and complexity hitherto unseen in the role' blah blah luvvie bullshit blah.

You'd think the cunt was playing King pissing Lear, the way he crapped on. Humourless, pompous and extremely unlikeable - no wonder he found a career pretending to be other people.

....so if I said that I quite liked him as my introduction to Doctor Who, would you lynch me?

I'd seen one of the Dr Who films starring Peter Cushing first
But Eccleston was the first I saw in a TV series

Not at all, I don't give a toss, to be honest.
The actor happens to be unpleasant - could still be a good actor. Peter Sellers managed this: he was a total cunt by all accounts.
(, Wed 10 Nov 2010, 9:31, Reply)
I've never disliked any of his characters for being shit
I do understand his fear of being typecast after playing it, as other Doctors have.

I think he had the better episodes than Tennant for the most part, especially the 2 set in the Blitz. My friend has "Are You My Mummy?" as his text tone, it still freaks me out a bit.
(, Wed 10 Nov 2010, 9:17, Reply)
He is shit
And he was shit in the fucking shit remake of Gone in 60 seconds. How can they take a fucking good film and remake it in to that toss, then put that shit fucking prick in it wanting "fifty high end 'kers'"

I'm sure in his mind Richard Blackwood is most definitely the man.
And he hangs out at The BlacwoodWorld theme park which has a ride to scare the shit out of you called "The Enema" and features a special club where you can dance the night away to his one hit single on repeat play and rub shoulders with his great showbiz mates Toby Anstis, Callum Best and the girl who did Denise Welch's hair when she was in Corrie.

I like the one where the locals turned on her
Accused her of kiddy-fiddling, then chased her into her home and torched the place. That bit where she tries to jump out of the window whilst on fire, but gets stuck due to her corpulent frame, whilst the villagers stab her with pitchforks is great. The scene at the end where they tuck into Fat Bitch Crackling was beautiful too.
